Check your facts ...... Mullah Omar / Taliban were nowhere when Soviets were in Afghanistan ... They left Afghanistan in 1989. Soviets were driven out by mujahideens ... some of the leaders were Hekmatiyar and Ahmed Shah Masood ..... Mullah Omar / Taliban were nowhere at that time.
Taliban was formed much later ( soemtime in 1993-94) as US had lost interest in the region after the soviets left. They were used by Pakistan establishment to increase their sphere of influence in Afghansitan. At that time it made a lot of sense to have a group powerfull enough to control the whole of Afghansitan. But then the policies they followed after coming to power were barbaric.
Do you agree with the kind of policies that were followed by Taliban in Afghanistan once they came to power?
